The spirit blade came into contact with my skin, but with a sudden halt. There wasn't any other impending effect, it was as if the dungeon boss pulled it's punch last moment. But it was quite the opposite, actually.
I rendered it completely useless.
Lightning pulsed from my hands, in the next instant, the dungeon boss was suddenly struck multiple times at the core, being pushed back into another monument that later crashed upon it.
I landed, gracefully. One foot first, then the other. [Static Burst] on appearance might just seem like a weaker [Lightspark] or [Touch of Lightning], but [Static Burst] gives me the passive of increased [Lightning] magic for the coming moments. By a whopping 40%.
That means that not only do I cancel out King Skeleton's damage reduction through it's Spirit Magic that it pirated from Vaniti, but I also get to do devastating damage. It doesn't last long, however, which means I need to end this now.
